Statewide Land Use 1996 to 2005

dataset: LANDUSE100_2005
This land use map has been prepared under contract with Bureau of Rural Sciences (BRS) for Murray-Darling Basin Commission (MDBC). The classification scheme followed here was the Australia Land Use Mapping (ALUM) classification version 4 (BRS, 2001). ALUM version 4 was developed by BRS as a modification of Baxter - Russell Classification, in coordination with State agencies. This product is based on information from a number of sources: Corporate Geospatial Data Library (CGDL), former DNRE regional data sets, satellite imagery from ACRES, the planning maps from Infrastructure Department, and the newly acquired field survey information. Data was sourced from 1996 to 2005. Product was independently validated. Overall accuracy is 89.27%.

Purpose
In 1994 an Australian Land Use Mapping (ALUM) standard was developed for the Murray Darling Basin Commission (MDBC) (Baxter and Russell 1994). In 1996 a collaborative national land use mapping initiative called the Australian Collaborative Land Use Mapping Program (ACLUMP) was established. This initiative further refined the ALUM classification (Bureau of Rural Sciences 2006) and this was used when the former DPI in Victoria began a state wide mapping program in Gippsland in 1996 that was finished in the lower Goulburn in 2005.

Quality

Conceptual Consistency
Selected data sets were first integrated into grid format and classified. The classified grid was vectorised and joined with the road, infrastructure, hydrology and other ancillary layers. Field survey data was finally incorporated. 
Missing Data
Land Use has been mapped across the State down to a minimum secondary ALUM Version 4 level. 
Attribute Quality
Attributes were checked with the original input data. Field verification was done primarily checking agricultural classes with final validation producing an accuracy result of 89.27%. 
Positional Accuracy
25 - 100 m
